Endowing systems with abilities to assess a user’s mental state in an operational environment could be useful to improve communication and interaction methods. In this work we seek to model user mental workload using spectral features extracted from electroencephalography (EEG) data. In particular, data were gathered from 17 participants who performed different cognitive tasks. We also explore the application of our model in a non laboratory context by analyzing the behavior of our model in an educational context. Our findings have implications for intelligent tutoring systems seeking to continuously assess and adapt to a learner’s state.
